@nattyice @drewbanin All of what you say makes a ton of sense. But think the one size fits all DB is an ideal -- in my (limited) experience, the new workload precedes the DB custom...
@vboykis This is super interesting but after thinking on it I'm not sure how much I agree with the compiler and problem audiences. It's like saying spell/grammar check is the first...
I've met a few people who quit ML to go into crypto. But these people were either doing DL research (and hadn't written a paper in a while) or chaining protobufs all day long. http...
@TweetAtAKK I liked this talk (may or may not have crashed it, lol). One of @HamelHusain's great points is the high activation energy to merely get started with TFX, which tends to...
Tired of there being 5+ types of data "shift" that interchange meaning in different ML research papers or Medium posts. E.g. covariate shift, domain shift, concept shift, subpopula...

IMO there's no substitute MLOps experience for building a pipeline that serves predictions at some endpoint (e.g., REST) and trying to sustain some performance over time. Some poin...
Continuous Integration (CI) & testing for ML pipelines is hard and generally unsolved. Iβve been thinking about this for a while now β why itβs important, what it means, why curren...
I've made this mistake many times while monitoring ML outputs. Arbitrary thresholds give arbitrary alerts! Our solution was: find the minimum metric val that yields business retur...
(opinionated) thoughtdump of industry vs academic "mlops" tool-building philosophies (writing this more for myself as a means of clarifying my thoughts, and all of this is merely s...
i guess i'll give my honest review of copilot after using it ~6hr/day for 3 weeks (i switched to vscode ~4 years ago, so no learning curve): 1) my stackoverflow usage is down by ~...
